Is Aneet Padda Playing Madhubala?
Ever since her big breakout with Saiyaara, Aneet Padda has been one of the most talked-about new faces in Bollywood. The young actress quickly earned the tag of one of 2025’s most promising debutants, and fans are curious about what she’ll do next.
So when rumours started flying online that Aneet would be playing legendary star Madhubala in an upcoming biopic, the internet immediately lost its chill.
According to the viral reports, a grand biopic on Madhubala is being planned, backed by filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Reports also claimed the film would be directed by Jasmeet K. Reen, known for the dark comedy drama Darlings. With such big names involved, fans quickly assumed Aneet had landed another dream role.
But here’s the real story!
When NDTV reached out to Yash Raj Films, the banner that exclusively manages Aneet Padda, they shut down the rumours completely. A talent spokesperson from the banner said, “It’s untrue”.
Kiara Advani’s Name Was Earlier Linked To The Madhubala Biopic
Interestingly, Aneet isn’t the first actor whose name has been linked to this rumoured biopic. Earlier, reports claimed that Kiara Advani would play Madhubala. However, that casting buzz also turned out to be incorrect.
Aneet Padda Upcoming Movies:
While the Madhubala rumours may not be real, Aneet Padda’s career is still moving at full speed. In fact, she has replaced Kiara Advani in another project… the upcoming Maddock horror-comedy Shakti Shalini. The rising star will also appear next in the courtroom drama Nyaya.
Even without the Madhubala biopic, Aneet Padda is quickly becoming one of the most exciting new names in the industry. And with such interesting projects lined up, all eyes are definitely on this promising star!
